Why did I go for solo female travel in Iran ?

Simple, no one wanna go with me. I hope it’s not about me but somehow there were thousand reasons from “friends” so no one could come along : 1) “cannot be off from work 2) “is it safe?” 3) “Air Ticket is so expensive ” 4) “nothing much to see in Iran?” 5) “it’s not safe” 6) “it’s war zone” 7) “I need more than … Continue reading Why did I go for solo female travel in Iran ?
